I don’t have live news access right now. Here’s what I can share based on recent publicly available information about José Ortiz-Echagüe:
-
José Ortiz-Echagüe (1886–1980) was a prominent Spanish entrepreneur, engineer, pilot, and photographer, and he founded CASA (Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA). He also served as the first executive president of SEAT in Spain. This basic biographical framing remains widely cited in sources about his career .
-
His photography, especially his documentary and pictorial work from the early to mid-20th century, is frequently exhibited in Spain and internationally, with notable collections and dedicated spaces such as exhibitions connected to the Universidad de Navarra. Recent exhibition activity referenced in museum pages indicates ongoing interest in his photographic legacy .
-
The legacy of Ortiz-Echagüe continues to be studied and publicly presented through academic and cultural institutions in Spain, including catalogs and loaned works for exhibitions. Several sources note ongoing exhibitions and sustained interest in his body of work .
If you’d like, I can search for the latest news again and pull current articles or provide a brief digest once I have up-to-date results. I can also focus on a specific angle (e.g., his photography, industrial ventures, or SEAT leadership) if you tell me what you’re most interested in.

I very much like the work of old photographers who caught the character of people in disappearing ways of life, such as in the crowded market place at Whitby recorded in the 1880s by Frank Meadow Sutcliffe, or the Abbots Bromley Horn Dance from about 1900 by Benjamin Stone.
